A prophecy fulfilled

A famous revelation of the Promised Messiah (AS) is: "Kings would seek blessings from your garments." This prophecy was first fulfilled during the time of the Third Caliphate in the person of Sir Singhate who was elected Governor General of Gambia, West Africa. Governor General holds the highest office in a state. Mr. Singhate, a devout Muslim, was previously president of all the Ahmadiyya branches in Gambia.

When he was elected to this prestigious office, he earnestly prayed for sometime. Then he informed Hadhrat Khalifat al-Masih III that he wanted to obtain blessings from the garments of the Promised Messiah (AS), therefore could a piece of the garment be sent to him? Accordingly a piece of the clothing was sent to him from Rabwah that was a source of immense joy to him. In this manner the revelation of the Promised Messiah (AS) was fulfilled for the first time during the reign of the Third Caliph.
